The force’s Spokesman, Muyiwa Adejobi confirmed in a statement that the joint team of operatives also nabbed 13 suspects for different other crimes.

Adejobi said:

“One of the successes achieved is the prevention of another kidnapping attempt through technical intelligence leading to the capture of the aforementioned Bwari-based kidnappers, and the recovery of weapons from them.

The public was outraged by the kidnapping of six children and their father in the Bwari Area Council of Abuja on January 3, 2024.

The kidnappers reportedly murdered one of the daughters named Nabeehah after their parents failed to pay the N60m ransom on time.

The rest sisters were freed after payment of N100m ransom.
